Make your MLB picks (A Stickyfingers game)

[stickyfingers]

The following is a list of the predicted # of wins for all of the MLB baseball teams.

Here the Game:

Pick 10 teams and say whether you think those teams will go over or under the #of wins predicted. For example, the Yanks are predicted to win 101 games...If you think they will win 102 or more you would select the over.

Scoring: For each team that you pick the over/under for you will recieve a score. So, If you take the Yankees to go over 101 and they win 105 games you will recieve 4 pts (105-101). If the Yanks only win 95 games and you picked them to go over your score will be (-6) (101-95). All scores will be combined for one final score.

Here are the predicted # of wins and results:

Yankeess.................101 (101)
Boston.......................97 (98)
Chicaco Cubs.............93 (89)
Philadelphia...............92 (86)
Houston.....................91 (92)

I think its a couple of things...The AL Central got a lot weaker, see White Sox and Minnesota....and their young guys have a year under thier belt, and last year was just awful...66 wins is still terrible

just out of curiousity sticky, why not do a first half score, then a possibly change up in the second? just cut the score in half.

i figure it might make it more interesting and allow people to enter in the last half of the season. just an idea, but you might need to adjust the lines, which might fuck up people's picks. just an idea.

[stickyfingers]

you guys have got to be kidding me...i topped this thing like 3 times prior to the start of the season and now that its started you decide to join....well, that in and of itself is not fair to those who joined before the start of the season.



<img src=http://img18.photobucket.com/albums/v53/monster6sixty6/guests/sf2_sig.jpg>

[stickyfingers]

So, We've reached the All-Star Break...some of you may not even remember who you've picked, but here is the updated list of how many games each team was predicted to win/how many they are on pace to win. Feel free to figure out how you are doing. I may even take the time to do it later, but for now I can't.

It appears the biggest Surprise has been Texas as they are on pace to win 21 more games than predicted. The biggest letdown has been Seattle as they are on pace to win 28 fewer games than predicted.

16 teams are above the predicted pace while 14 are below.



Yankeess.................101 / 104
Boston.......................97 / 90
Chicaco Cubs.............93 / 88
Philadelphia...............92 / 86
Houston.....................91 / 81
Anahiem.....................91 / 88

(1) Yankeess: over 101 (on pace for 104)
(2) Boston: under 97 (on pace for 90)
(3) Philadelphia: over 92 (on pace for 86...OUCH!)
(4) Minnesota: under 85 (on pace for 88)
(5) St. Louis: over 85 (on pace for 101)
(6) San Diego: over 82 (on pace for 87)
(7) NY Mets: under 81 (on pace for 82)
(8) Kansas City: over 81 (on pace for 59...wow)
(9) Milwaukee: over 66 (on pace for 85)
(10) Detroit: under 66 (on pace for 78...me & my big mouth)

I'm 5-5 so far, but I'm confident the Mets can still tank, so I should at least be above .500 in my picks.
